General Motors announced last week that it's voluntarily recalling almost 900 2014 Chevy and GMC half-ton pickup trucks to replace the passenger airbag that might not fully inflate during an accident.
GM is contacting each owner directly because the trucks have only recently gone on sale; the company notes that less than 1% of the trucks could have the faulty sensor. There are no known crashes or injuries related to this issue.
All 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500s and GMC Sierra 1500s currently at dealerships will have the repairs made there, while others will benefit from a production change. For more information call your local dealer or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Vehicle Safety hotline at 888-327-4236 (TTY: 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
